Well from their site

Moderation

Since there are no global admins, the administrative control of a subplebbit rests solely with its creator. No one else can moderate content or accounts unless the subplebbit creator grants them permission.

So, it's not that there's no moderation. It's just "subplebbit" creator/delegates controlled as there is no over arching site wide company able to moderate it on the whole.

It will mean, as a user, you'll have to be liberal with removing subplebbits from your own feed though. I'm sure there will be some.. not so pleasant subplebbits appearing.

Time to go back to email lists. Anyone can come along sure. But it's only going to be the most determined.

Does it, if you can work on the normal application code, there's no reason you can't work on the lower levels of applications. It's all just code. Ramp up might take a bit more time, but I wouldn't expect horrendously so. As long as your patterns make sense and what is there is written well enough and is not a spaghetti monster in the making, any one should be able to pick it up.

The simplest and slowest way when you need to use something from the system clipboard:

Copying: Enter visual mode (v) Highlight the text I want to copy then enter in command mode "+y which basically means "Use a register for following command (") make it the external clipboard register (+) and yank/copy (y)"

Pasting Move to where I want to paste then enter in command mode "+p to paste after the current position or "+P to paste before the current position

If I don't need to copy/paste stuff to applications outside of vim, then I can skip the "+ register setting part, and just use the default internal register.

It is. Relatively so. This smells of Mozilla wanting to package things in there that Linux distro maintainers wouldn't package in themselves.

You may say I'm being overtly cynical and as much as I love Firefox, I can't say I trust Mozilla's intentions

Not so much toggled, but you can break out of it. At that point it just becomes a fedora install with a somewhat different set of defaults.

I would have thought that you fix it locally, git commit, and regenerate the patch set again. Maybe with optional squashing of commits so each patch set doesn't keep growing.

They ruled that for copyright to apply, a human must have authored the work.

Now if an AI spits out code that's a duplicate of a humans authored work. Then you could argue the author is actually the original human. And this it would be covered by their original copyright

Another alternative, I've been looking at is radicle. It's private repository stuff is rough, but public repository stuff, much less so. Seems to be early days but I really like what the project is doing.

I don't think the code is the problem they are cleaning up. I think they just want to remove the contributor from the history.

Right, but you can have entries in a block chain that indicate previous entries are no longer valid, or have modifications. Calculating a final state by walking through all the blocks in the chain. ( A bit like a CQRS based system can have a particular state at a point in time by replaying all events up to that point)

Doing it in such a way also makes auditing what's happened much easier since changes are inherently reflected in the chain. You want to know when (or by who if you keep that information) a record changes, it's right their in the chain.

A bad company. Because they should be delivering a holistic product. But their hardware side knows their shit at least.

A null does not make it memory unsafe. You aren't accessing invalid memory, the runtime just raises a NRE. Which is fine. No memory safety violated.

Java is, as long as you stick to pure java and not native interop, entirely memory safe. And that's achieved by giving up control of memory allocation to the garbage collector.

Rust is not the first memory safe language. It does however, manage to achieve memory safety without needing a garbage collector. Which is what drew my initial interest.

Can't libre office's calc work with Excel files?

People who find success can, sometimes, become arrogant and become blind to other factors contributing to their success. Just enough failure can keep you humble. Pretty typical human reactions.

Fedora, I think, is pretty good for a normal user.

Go make one then?

Office 365 also refers to the desktop apps as well as the web versions, has done for many years now. Though I suppose it's all copilot 365 now.

Source: Am office worker where we use office 365, and we all use the native system software, with the browser versions as for quick editing when elsewhere.

I think it's a script they added to do some sort of check with rustfmt.

Does GCC support pluggable backends? I feel when something like this comes up, the real answer should be, for those that make sense to drop from the core, it'd make sense to make them pluggable and separate them out, so that those that need them can pick them up if they need.
